Gene recombination or fusion is one of the best ways to “make” genes with passed skills. In this general guide to gene fusion in Chaos Rings 3, we will go over every single concept that you need to know or have questions about. However, we will not go into specific details about “best” gene fusion combinations since that will be the purpose of another guide. This general Chaos Rings 3 fusion guide will simply explain how things work in the game.

Please note that this gene fusion and combine guide is a general and basic guide. We will not go into specific skill combinations with this guide so advanced or end game players may not find it useful to create “final” builds.

Gene Fusion, Rarity, and Star Rating
Star Rating:
First of, you cannot increase the star rating of each of the genes in the game, so they are pretty much fixed across most of the genes. It should be noted some lower level genes can have different star ratings like 2~3*.

Rarity Level and Level Cap:
Your genes in Chaos Rings 3 have level caps dependent on the rarity of the genes. They are as followed:

Normal (N) = Level 30
Rare (R) Level 60
Super Rare (SR) = Level 100

You can increase the rarity rating in terms of Normal (N), Rare (R), or Super Rare (SR) by combining the same genes together. To do so, fuse it with another maxed level card with the same or above rarity. Below is a chart of these rarity increases.

N + N = R
R + R = SR
N + SR = R
R + SR = SR

Gene Recombination Basic
When you combine two different Chaos Rings 3 genes, it will usually result a different gene that are relatively close to each other on the gene index with a few exceptions detailed later in the guide.

There is also a special rule where you fuse a 2* Elemental + 2* Non-Elemental = 3* Elemental.

Gene Element Combination Results Chart
You can check for the gene fusion element combination pattern with the following table.

	Fire	Ice	Earth	Bolt	Light	Dark	Neutral
Fire	Fire	Earth	Light	Ice	Dark	Ice	Fire
Ice	Earth	Ice	Bolt	Dark	Bolt	Earth	Ice
Earth	Light	Bolt	Eart	Fire	Fire	Ice	Earth
Bolt	Ice	Dark	Fire	Bolt	Fire	Light	Bolt
Light	Dark	Bolt	Fire	Fire	Light	None	Light
Dark	Ice	Earth	Ice	Light	None	Dark	Dark
Neutral	Fire	Ice	Earth	Bolt	Light	Dark	Neutral

We can also translate to the following gene fusion formula list based on what kind of resulting element genes that you want.

When you combine a non-elemental with an elemental gene, you will always get that element.

When you combine an elemental with another gene of the same element, you will still get that element.

Fire:
Light + Earth
Light + Bolt
Earth + Bolt

Ice:
Dark + Earth
Dark + Fire
Bolt + Fire

Earth:
Dark + Ice
Fire + Ice

Bolt:
Light + Ice
Earth + Ice

Light:
Dark + Bolt
Earth + Fire

Dark:
Light + Fire
Bolt + Ice

Special 5 Star Gene Combo Recipe
can only be fused from these specific gene combination of the 2 four star genes of the same element.

There are 13 combinations which you can obtain 5* genes from 4*’s, those special 5 Star gene fusion combinations are listed later in this guide and also on Chaos Rings 3 Complete Gene Collection Guide.

Fire
Nuwa – Goemon + Kenshin
The Lionheart – Nostradamus + Heishichi

Water
Jekyll & Hyde – D’Artagnan + Rapunzel
Napoleon – Masamune + Jubei

Earth
Kamehameha – Michaelangelo + Basho
Newton – Spartacus + Yoshitsune

Bolt
Alexander – Susanoo + Ishtar
Cleopatra – Qin Shi Huang + Daji

Light
Shizuka Gozen – Amaterasu + Ikkyu
Iseult – Lugh + Marie

Dark
John Doe – Tsukuyomi + Jack the Ripper
Juliet – Tutankhamun + Shakespeare

Neutral
Kojiro – Solomon + Da Vinci

Gene Combination and Heritage Skill Pass
When you combine fuse genes in Chaos Rings 3, two random skills from the parents will pass on to the child gene as heritage skill. The selection is completely random from the total skill pool of the parents, it means that either 1 or 2 of the same skills may come from the parents.

What you can do is to check the status of resulting gene during fusion before the final “validate”. In this screen you can check to see which of the skills have been passed as heritage skills.

It should be noted that the skills selected at random must NOT be something that the child gene can learn naturally. If that is the case, the skill will not shown and the child gene will simply “relearn” the specific skill at their usual level progression.
